Elizabeth McCracken s The Souvenir Museum begins with one of the funniest short stories I ve read in a long time. It s about a short, round American who meets her newish boyfriend s angular English family all at once and utterly unprepared in damp Ireland, at the wedding of the middle of his three sisters. The Valerts, like most McCracken characters, are wonderfully eccentric, but they are also as chilly and off-putting as the weather. Hilariously so. McCracken, who is married to English-born writer and illustrator Edward Carey, nails these brusque Brits, who dress like stable hands and are devoted to punishing country walks and scatological humor. When Sadie s boyfriend, whom she knows as Jack though his family calls him Lenny, asks how she s doing a few hours into their stay, she says, I ve had anxiety dreams more relaxing.
